IJssteker met ivoren handgreep 1850

Pierre Louis Uriot, a French silversmith active in the first half of the 19th century, crafted this elaborate ice pick with an ivory handle in 1850. The ice pick's design features a telescopic structure that allows for compact storage, making it a practical and stylish addition to any gentleman's ice-cutting kit. The ivory handle, polished to a smooth finish, provides a comfortable grip, while the silver body adds a touch of elegance. This functional object exemplifies the artistry and skill of the silverwork practiced during the mid-19th century, a period when craftsmanship was highly valued.
